Rugged Capsule Collections

Before H&M became your affordable go-to pick, it was referred to as Hennes. But once H&M founder Erling Persson purchased Mauritz Widfross’ (the “M” of H&M) store of men’s outdoor clothing and sporting equipment—the rest was history. Embodying the rugged feel of Mauritz’s activity gear, H&M created a collection featuring items that transition from the city sidewalks to the greenery of the wilderness. Pieces include, basic Henleys, wool long johns designed to tuck perfectly into the collections hiking boots and waxed jackets with detachable (orange) nylon linings. Stock up, as the items are available now at H&M locations and online.

But you’ll want to make sure your outerwear is just as cool as your layering.

Started in Colorado, outdoor brand Gerry Mountaineering has reinvented their 60-year-old heritage pieces in a capsule collection. Created with Colorado’s snow-filled mountains in mind, modern updates feature clean lines and toggle details. Gerry’s famed slope coat (seen above) is also revamped in design adding slight plaid accents and a hard outer shell guaranteed to withstand any weathered trails. Other collection items include premium down vests, parkas, and “shackets” (yes, shirt jackets) created to equip any skilled outdoorsman—like yourself. Available at limited Bloomingdales locations across the country like the Lexington Flagship in NYC and the Beverly Center in Los Angeles.
